An electrical contact assembly includes a first module having a first set of electrical contacts, a second module having a second set of electrical contacts, a shape-generating module, and a clamping arrangement. The second set of electrical contacts is aligned with the first set of electrical contacts and the shape-generating module is arranged to impart a shape to the second module such that the second set of electrical contacts is driven toward the first set of electrical contacts. The clamping arrangement is arranged to clamp the first, the second, and the shape-generating modules together, thereby resulting in a positive contact force between the first and second sets of electrical contacts. The positive contact force is equal to or greater than a predefined value.

A cabinet assembly is provided that can be quickly assembled and disassembled inside side racks used for the purpose of housing computer systems. The assembly comprises a plurality of side plates that can be secured to inside rack sides, preferably through flexible flanges, a plurality of top and bottom plates that can be secured to the side plates, and a mid-plate is disposed substantially horizontally between the top and bottom plates. Alternately, the assembly can also comprise at least one rear plate that can be secured to the side plates to provide a third side for the assembly. The rear plates having openings designed to allow for front to back air flow ventilation. The assembly can also have at least one divider plate, and preferably a plurality of divider plates, that can be secured to the top and bottom and/or mid-plate(s). In such a case, the divider plates are disposed above and/or below the mid-plate and preferably each have an upper divider plate and a lower divider plate.

A method and associated assembly is provided for installation and removal of electronic components on a computer rack. The assembly comprises a transport dolly with a platform and at least one caster and the Dolly is selectively sized to fit under or the computer rack. A Lift Tool is also provided and disposed over said Dolly. The Tool includes a lift platform capable for holding electronic components and a lift mechanism capable of moving from a first position to a second position such as to be capable of removing or disposing these components away or onto the rack. A plurality of Lift Rails are also provided that are storable between the Lift Tool and the Dolly. The Lift Rails can be used alone or assembled later into longer unitary units that attach to the rack and the Lift Tool in order to allow the Tool to transport the components from a first position to a second position along the rack.
